St Clement's, Mile End, London

JTP on behalf of Linden Homes

Submission Summary:

St Clements is the creative reuse and transformation of a site that has lain derelict since 2005, opening the existing gates on Mile End Road to create a new public-pedestrian route through the site, and integrating refurbished listed buildings with sympathetically-designed new homes.

New buildings integrate with existing, and rather than competing with the richness of detail in the existing, the new buildings create a calm, considered, elegant backdrop against which the architecture of the existing can be celebrated and enjoyed.

The first phase opened in December 2017, and the project is due for completion at the end of 2019.
